Reviews
I had heard about this place but had never been here before. Yes, if you can believe it, this was my first time visiting the Mt Annan botanical gardens. What a beautiful area. Heaps more to explore. But for now, I'll just tell you about our visit to the Gardens cafe. Upon entering the cafe, we were shown to a table on the covered verandah. Menus and cold water were provided. Not long after our food and beverage orders were made, my coffee arrived. Only a few minutes after that, all our remaining orders arrived. Really prompt service!
I had egg benedict with smoked salmon & a cappuccino. Nice. The only criticism was that the knives supplied were quite blunt, which made consuming our meals difficult. Apart from that, all good. A lovely venue, clean, interesting views, tasty food, good coffee, and great service.

Beautiful place to stop to relax, have a picnic or go on a walk. Not all tracks are dog friendly, but you can still bring your furry friend if you stick to the outer tracks.
Beautiful park without alot of people. Easy paved hiking trail with great views and benches along the way. Chances to see Wallabies or Kangaroos. Nice clean picnic areas
Peaceful and relaxing atmosphere
Huge gardens with lots to see. Very quite on a weekday and can walk around for hours without meeting anyone. Not only you can see native Australian flora but we have seen kangaroos, red belly snake, parrots and white ibis. Will definitely be back during spring time.
Good place for a family outing and picnic. Compared to any other picnic spots this place is not anything extraordinary. The one way road often makes you go round and round. It would be good find a map of everything it has to offer. We could only see few shaded area and all of those were occupied we just went to have a picnic so my review totally based on a picnic and bbq spot not for people considering to visit for botanical garden perspective.
The place is quite beautiful in the afternoon. Great way to connect with nature. Great views of the lake from the top. Beautiful walking tracks , all around.Quite informative information board available near majority of the plants if you are interested in learning more about the different species. Plenty of parking and public toilets.
This is a great place to bring your little dog very safe
Perfectly situated in Sydney. Enjoy the different types of gardens and the views. We spent about 3 hours walking the grounds, but much less time could be spent.
"Exploring the Botanic Garden in Sydney is a serene journey through nature's masterpiece. As I entered, the vibrant colors of meticulously curated flora welcomed me, creating an instant sense of tranquility. The garden's layout is a testament to thoughtful design, offering a harmonious blend of open spaces, winding paths, and themed sections.
The diversity of plant species is awe-inspiring, and each corner of the garden unfolds a new chapter in the story of botanical wonder. From the delicate blooms to the towering trees, the garden is a living tapestry that showcases nature's artistry. The manicured lawns invite visitors to pause, breathe, and appreciate the beauty that surrounds them.
One of the highlights of the Botanic Garden is the opportunity for a calming walk. The well-maintained paths guide you through shaded areas, where the dappled sunlight adds a gentle warmth to the atmosphere. It's a perfect escape from the urban hustle—a sanctuary where time seems to slow down.
The waterfront areas within the garden provide not only a visual treat but also a peaceful ambiance. The serene ponds, coupled with the backdrop of the city skyline, create a picturesque setting that is both refreshing and rejuvenating.
The Botanic Garden is not just a place to see; it's a place to experience. Whether you're an avid botanist or just seeking a quiet retreat, this garden offers a haven for reflection and connection with nature. It's a gem in the heart of Sydney, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of the natural world."

Great way to kill a few hours. We paid to go into the rainforest and photography exhibition which was Amazing. There's so many cool little secret gardens and pathways. You could get lost for hours. It would be a beautiful place for a wedding. So happy we went
Really nice way to spend our last day of our Adelaide trip. Good range of plants to see and great ideas for back home.
We really enjoyed the museum, the plants, people area and the huge rose garden.

Nice botanic gardens to walk around. Came on a really sunny day so I wish there was more shade. Exhibits also acted as a greenhouse so it was really suffocating inside. But overall, interesting and good to spend a few minutes enjoying nature there.
The real royal botanical of a city.
Wonderful place with many amazing spots.
Find lots of flowers, indoor flowers, or just barbeque in the garden or walk exercise around this huge garden.
Amazing view with the water too or to the opera house.

I highly recommend visit to the Royal Botanic Gardens!
Wrapped around Sydney Harbour and adjacent to the Sydney Opera House, the gardens occupy one of Sydney's most spectacular positions. It is one of Sydney’s most beautiful and alluring destinations, with everyone is welcome to come and enjoy the abundant natural beauty.
I had a really great time here. It is a beautiful place with a lovely view. And I finished my observation diary assessment here. you can see the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge here, so you can feel the different side of the Opera House.
From the research:
Established in 1816, it is the oldest scientific institution in the country and is home to an outstanding collection of plants from Australia and overseas.
From the provocative rare and threatened plants of the world to the romantic rose garden, the themed garden areas show the diverse beauty of nature.
Special features include Cadi Jam Ora: First Encounters, a garden display that remembers and acknowledges the Cadigal - the original inhabitants of Sydney's city centre - and their relationship with this land.

These gardens are so stunning, one of the best botanical gardens I’ve visited. Such a beautiful array of plant varieties & flowers, there are gorgeous water views as well. There’s a cafe on site & a cute gift shop. I love coming back here & strolling around the gardens. It would be a perfect place for a picnic or date. Definitely recommend a visit if you’re near here / coming to Hobart.
Loved this place. Not only is the garden stunning, but the view is breathtaking. The fragrance in the air and seeing children play on the grass as they rolled down the hill. Locals seem to know it as the place to picnic. Love it.
I love visiting botanical gardens within major cities. It felt like a bit of an escape from the hustle and bustle of the Circular Quay. While there's still plenty of things going on outside, the beautiful surroundings, manicured to promote peace and relaxation, helped to slow me down, and drink up the scenery and stillness. Grateful for my stroll there 🙏🏽🤙🏽
It is one of the most beautiful botanical gardens I have visited. It has all the names of the plants and flowers, including the region where they are from. It's a very knowledgeable experience and got to click a lot of beautiful pictures.
The Tasmanian Botanical Gardens is a charming and enchanting destination that offers an abundance of natural beauty to behold. Visitors can unwind, immerse themselves in nature, and be surrounded by serene surroundings. The well-placed benches allow for moments of pause and relaxation, and the countless wonders of the garden can captivate visitors for hours on end.
The Royal Botanical Garden in Hobart offers a truly memorable experience with its vast size and diverse range of attractions. It feels like a paradise for nature enthusiasts, with expansive paths and trails winding through lush greenery and vibrant flower beds. It is recommended to set aside a generous amount of time to fully appreciate the beauty and variety of this garden.
The Royal Botanical Garden is also praised for its family-friendly atmosphere, with dedicated play areas, interactive exhibits, and educational programs that cater to visitors of all ages. It provides a wonderful opportunity for kids to learn about nature and develop a love for the environment.
Reviewers also highlight the beauty and maintenance of the gardens, the friendly staff, and the ease of getting around with a pram and small children. The sub-Antarctic garden and the presence of rabbits hopping around add to the interest and enjoyment of the visit.

The Tasmanian Botanical Gardens is undeniably a must-visit destination. There’s an abundance of natural beauty to behold in this charming little spot, and I wholeheartedly recommend a visit. It’s an enchanting place to unwind, immerse yourself in nature, and take in the serene surroundings. There are numerous opportunities to pause and relax, thanks to the many well-placed benches along your path. I initially planned for just a couple of hours but found myself captivated and ended up spending half the day exploring the countless wonders this garden has to offer.
We did the big loop today and it was amazing. Very quite, interesting plants and far enough from the city to forget about the stress and chaos from the city.
Spotted a few interesting birds as well.
Organic Cola from the visitors centre was tasty too!

Magnificent Royal Gardens. We spent hours walking the paths and enjoying the Australian flora and fauna! It was very lovely to walk along the harbor and get a different view of the Opera house. The gift shop was also a great place for gifts and treats for yourself! I try to go to Botanical Gardens in all cities and this is one of the best!
It was my 1st time here, yet I lived here since 1987.
Access is easy, I think plenty of parking, plants 🪴 appear to be well documented.
Amongst the ponds and board walks is a cafe, they make a great coffee.
There's so much small wildlife as well and I'll need to return as it's a large space requiring more time.
It's a shame it doesn't get great advertising as it's a very relaxing venue to clear the head. 💕

Great place for an easy walk in the park. The garden is in 2 halves, with one nicely landscaped and the other yet to be done.
The landscaped part is around a lake that had multiple bridges and viewing areas. There are small waterfalls and tropical areas.
Wheelchair accessible paths and easy parking.

These extraordinary gardens are one of the prime must see things in Melbourne. The site is beautiful and the range of plants and their siting and presentation is exceptional. We simply did a self directed early Spring tour here this morning. We just got a free map from the entrance and spent the most pleasant few hours wandering around and taking in the sights, sounds and smells. All we wanted to do was spend more time and enjoy the inspiring surroundings. My favourite areas were around the beautiful lake especially the various bamboo varieties and some of the shade plants. But, there are so many other beautiful areas here including the dry areas. We made a promise to each other on leaving this amazing garden. One day we’ll stay at a nearby hotel so we can make several trips to this special place and experience the garden at different times including early morning and early evening. Don’t miss this place. It is truly inspiring
This place is a testament to why Aussie nature is so great. You can drive up a hill to see over vast expanses of greenery. You get blazing sun and nice picnic spots. Toilets are surprisingly clean compared to the cities.
In fact, there was a wedding going on when I was here. Really adds to the grandeur of how it feel. Paper daisies are also quite special. Highly recommend to come here. And all this for free, I can’t believe it. I guess it is a bit far from the city.

The second oldest Botanical gardens in Australia apparently.
Superb views in all directions. Sloping ground mostly but there's a buggy for those who need it.
The Arctic room is bound to make the kids laugh (except on a winters day!). See short video.
Great lunch at the restaurant.
Very clean toilets.

Lovely botanic garden with many things to look around, there are friends of gold coast visitor centre and ice cream shop 😋. Moreover, big kids playground and huge dogs off leash area 🐶 to make sure everyone happy. Lots of parking space and many entrance surrounding the area. You can walk or bike around while looking at the water pond. There is educational park and sensory garden to learn about the plant. Many table around for your outdoor eating, just make sure bring your table cloth and own chair plus make sure to keep the park tidy 😊. Great place for leisure and education time. Really satisfied and recommended 👍

I had the most amazing experience at the Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan! This place is a hidden gem in the heart of nature. The variety of plants and landscapes is truly breathtaking. Walking through the garden's lush paths and discovering the unique Australian flora was both educational and soothing. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate, providing excellent guided tours. The facilities are well-maintained, and the cafe offers delicious refreshments. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, photographer, or just looking for a peaceful escape, this garden is a must-visit. I can't wait to return.

I took my mum to see the paper daisy's today, they were stunning but the level of disrespect from tourist was heartbreaking, they would pick the flowers, jump the ropes & trample through the flowers just to get a photo. Security was doing their best but it was constant. One of the horticulturalists said they are never doing this again as there is so much love and work that goes into doing displays like this only to see it get destroyed in a day... Thanks flower tramplers! Way to kill it for everyone!! 😠
Quite lovely to walk around.
Lots of different areas and good photo opportunities.
Would have given five stars though there weren’t many bubble taps to get water especially on a hot day.
Would go again and recommend going here.

Very beautiful if you go at the right time. There are some rare and good varieties of flowers. There is a shop, cafe, toilets, picnic area, playground, and more.
The parking gets full very quickly but there's plenty of overflow parking. The cafe also had a long queue so we gave up trying it. The planted and well maintained areas are quite small compared to the whole botanical garden lands.

Spring is great time to visit Mount Annan /Botanical Garden. Great display of flowers. variety of native floral plants as well other ferns. Good amount of space to roam around , have picnic or just stay back and relax. Different adjoining gardens make this place interesting as well. beautiful landscapes to appreciate. toilet available. plenty of BBQ available in all gardens. plenty of parking available
Lovely way to spend the day. Some areas need a bit of work though. The health garden was fairly sparse and looked pretty thirsty.
We had a fantastic time at the Australian Botanical Garden in Mount Annan. It's not just a beautiful natural space but also great for families with kids. They have a wonderful kids' play area, perfect for a family outing and picnics. Plus, they even have barbecue facilities, making it a complete day out for everyone! And if you’re hungry, there is a dine-in for a delightful lunch experience.
Nice place to pay a visit. Peacefull and fresh in melbourne central. Fresh air, blue sky. A coffee shop in side

Royal Botanical Garden has so many varieties of flowers and other plants that we had not seen before. It's amazing how well these plants were maintained by the authorities. It was wonderful to take a walk along the park and relax next to the lakes.
I recently visited the Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney, and it was an absolutely enchanting experience! The lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and serene atmosphere made it a perfect escape from the bustling city. The garden's well-maintained paths and informative signage made it easy to explore and learn about a wide variety of plants and ecosystems. The views of the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge from within the garden were breathtaking. It's a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts, photographers, or anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city. I can't wait to return!
We visited the gardens in early September 2023. They are neat and very well kept. The whole place is relatively flat, with plenty of parking, and paths in very good condition suitable for strollers or a wheelchair. There is a children’s playground and a large flat area. A lovely spot to visit for a walk or a picnic.
Beautiful place. The place is very large to go with little time, it is advisable to go with your family and spend the whole day exploring. You breathe a peace and quiet, ideal to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city.
The botanical gardens are a place that is tranquil and peaceful. I loved the man made ponds that were teaming with different birds. There is plenty of chairs and water fountains to drink from. There is no entry fee and no waiting to get in. I would recommend a visit as it is well worth it.
Beautiful gardens!
It was incredibly quiet when I was there too (mid-afternoon weekday) which meant it was very peaceful.
The gardens are so well maintained and fantastically green. They're a great place to walk through or spend an afternoon relaxing.

There are variety of plants in here and you can picnic or just walking around to see many different kinds of plants and taking photos. It's best to come here on sunny day, and if you come here near the end of winter the weather is still pretty chill so you'll not feel hot
One of the best places someone can have a relaxing walking time in the green city of Adelaide.
It’s worthy to take your time and check the details and the small signs on the ground giving information about the plants and the history of the place.

First class botanic gardens, providing both garden delight, and botany lessons.
Sunny and shaded areas. Dog free and dog off leash zones. All great for wheelchairs and prams. Good parking.
We didn't visit the coffee shack.

I take mother often to Ashmore Regional Botanic Gardens on Ashmore Road. It has a good board walk to see the different waterbirds and little turtles, if lucky! They all love to sunbathe so sunny day mid morning to mid afternoon is a good time to spot the water dragons and the turtles!
Absolutely love these gardens. I just moved to the area and so overjoyed to find these just around the corner from me! There is so much to see and it is so well kept, immaculate and clean. Also very quiet and easy to access with tram or bus. You can come here to enjoy a nice walk, to relax in the open space or to see the different plants and flowers. I haven’t seen the light show yet but also looks worth booking in!
Top 5 things to do in Tasmania includes this for me. I enjoyed my walk for 4hrs here. For nature lovers this is a place to visit. From them entrance to exit the team was very helpful. You will find beautiful gardens from different countries here. Picnic area and gardens are amazing and well maintained.
Park located south West Sydney. Really nice place to do walks and have a picnic.
The park here is awesome so many paths and can even summit Mt annan itself.
With regards to the summit walk try to approach from Western side as the path is sorta safe. The eastern side isn't marked well and has a couple of orange cones at the entrance and felt a little pracarious.
The woodland walk was great need to come back again and go to the other building in the area.
I hear weekends can get pretty busy but weekdays were not too full had some school kids on excursions.

Great spot on Ashmore for a walk in the park. Plenty of space to park, with a dedicated area for kids.
Going around the park, there are also quite some spots for grilling and chilling.

Was not impressed with the botanic gardens at Gold Coast. Our local botanic gardens which is in a small country town is just outstanding and we can spend hours there so I was expecting a massive WOW when coming here but unfortunately we left within half hour of arriving after doing the entire ( what felt like the shortest walk ever ) trail track and boadwalk in the photos I'll add, which I thought was the ' entrance ' into the area around the carpark, unfortunately this was the most exciting part, the rest of the walk was through a petty little bush behind the Cafe backed onto people's houses in not so much of a peaceful walk being people mowing / TV/ general living sounds which wasn't so sweet, was just totally bummed by the gardens it self and was expecting ALOT more. We left and decided to go to rockpools with our toddler and had a way better time. Just way to short and ' boring ' to ever go here.
The garden is so beautiful. The glass structure, something like cottage, all these structures looks amazing. They have created something like rain forest inside that glass building. It was a really good experience to walk around there. The small pond inside the glass building has a beautiful fish. I would definitely recommend to go and visit this place.
The garden is very well maintain. We arrived toward the late afternoon so we couldn’t spend much time here. Please look at the open and close time first.
The garden is big and has various type of plants for you to enjoy. It’s so peaceful and quite. There are space for you to relax and enjoy the well spent time here.
At the front of the gate there is a gift shop where you enjoy shopping and there is a book section if you want to explore:))) do come and enjoy the time here :)

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Royal Botanical Garden in Hobart, and I must say it was a truly memorable experience. Spread over a vast area, the garden offers a diverse range of attractions that will captivate visitors of all ages.
One of the most striking features of the Royal Botanical Garden is its sheer size. The garden is expansive, with countless paths and trails winding through lush greenery and vibrant flower beds. It truly feels like a paradise for nature enthusiasts and provides ample space for visitors to explore at their own pace.
To truly appreciate the beauty and variety of this magnificent garden, I would highly recommend setting aside a generous amount of time. There is so much to see and discover that a single visit might not be enough to fully appreciate everything. From meticulously curated displays of native and exotic plants to tranquil ponds and charming sculptures, every corner of the garden offers a new and enchanting surprise.
One aspect that particularly impressed me about the Royal Botanical Garden was its family-friendly atmosphere. The garden caters to visitors of all ages, making it an excellent choice for a day out with children. There are dedicated play areas, interactive exhibits, and educational programs that are both entertaining and informative. It's a wonderful opportunity for kids to learn about nature and develop a love for the environment.

A great picnic spot and absolutely scenic. The japanese garden inside is breath taking. We got free entry as there was wedding photography scheduled on that Sunday. Good for kids and couples!!! Surrounded by trees and beautiful flowers, I highly recommend this place. You will find beautiful trail for walking and also barbecue slots along with picnic bench. There is play area for kids, which is poorly maintained but still usable. Public toilets and parking available so good place to visit.
Deserted and uncared for. Don’t waste your time.
Even thou you can only go to certain spots with your dog it's not bad. There is a small beach where your dog can go in the water and play.
I did a xmas wreath making class, Dec 2021. The whole afternoon was a great experience. The level of experience and knowledge from not only the teacher but all the ladies involved was so nurturing & supportive. I walked into the class expecting a bit of a fail in creativity & walked out feeling very confident in my own creation. Highly recommend
This is truly a beautiful Botanical Garden. One can easily spend the day here, just relaxing and watch the birds. There's even a small cafeteria inside the garden.
This is a wonderful place on the Gold Coast. The perfect place to relax and have a picnic.
A quiet garden that was just the place for a short stroll. Well maintained with lots of tables for a picnic.
A natural park as it developed without too much human intervention. Not large, clean with graded paths and rustic bridges. Car park is gravel that gets boggy in winter.
Only stopped for lunch and a stretch.

Nice quiet place. Good for a walk or picnic.
A nice quiet park suitable for walking or jogging, dog walking, a picnic or lunch spot. The garden seems to be made up of native trees & shrubs...though I did see one palm! A decent amount of parking areas available. A number of seats & picnic tables scattered throughout too. Didn't spot any public toilets however...
Which would make it hard to stay too long (for me at least lol!) No cafes either. But still if you're looking for some peace & quiet with trees...perfect!

Great spot for all types of activities, well kept...
Lovely spot to spend time with family/kids.I go there frequently for walks.
lovely place to explore with kids or dogs! :)
Great open area and surrounds especially in these covid times
Today I went to the nursery and was helped by a genuine and friendly lady, sharing her knowledge with me on restablishing a wildlife garden... Before being taken on a native bee walk and talk and meeting more genuine down to earth people. What a beautiful way to start a morning. Highly recommend.
